its X+1 D)X-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) The equation that represents the number of slices of bacon to the number he will eat, assuming he eats 24 grams is;
3·x + 6·y = 24
2) The equation in slope and intercept form is;
y = 4 - 0.5·x
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
The amount of protein Tommy wants to eat for breakfast = 24 grams
The quantity of protein in a slice of bacon = 3 grams
The quantity of protein in an egg = 6 grams
Let x represent the number of slices of bacon he will eat and let y represent the number of eggs he will eat
The equation that represents the number of slices of bacon to the number he will eat, assuming he eats 24 grams is given as follows;
3·x + 6·y = 24
2) The equation in slope and intercept form is given by making y the subject of the above equation as follows;
3·x + 6·y = 24
6·y = 24 - 3·x
y = 24/6 -1/2·x
y = 4 - 0.5·x, which is in the slope and intercept form y = m·x + c
Where;
m = The slope = -0.5
c = The y-intercept = 4
Answer: " x = 16 ; - 4 " .

-16 , +4 = -12 .
-16 * 4 = -64
______________________________
(x - 16)(x + 4) = 0 ;
